Phriend
Book local services from verified providers across the Philippines
A marketplace where customers browse and book local services from verified providers in the Philippines, paying the provider directly through the app.
About the business
Phriend is a local services marketplace in the Philippines where clients browse services listed by verified providers. Each service shows its own price (per job, hour, or session), up to six photos, whether it is online, in-person, or hybrid, and the provider's service area. Customers book appointments by picking a time from the provider's schedule and, for at-home services, selecting one of their saved addresses. Communication happens in-app with messaging, photos, and instant FAQ answers about payment and booking details.
Providers are verified through government ID and selfie checks, with additional document badges available for NBI clearance, police clearance, certificates, and business documents. The platform offers 51 service categories across 18 groups including aircon cleaning, appliance repair, bookkeeping, tutoring, photography, driving, errands, pet care, event coordination, and online services like consulting and virtual assistance.
Payment is agreed directly between client and provider—cash, e-wallet, or bank transfer—and Phriend does not hold or process money. Providers currently keep 100% of what clients pay them. Both clients and providers manage bookings, reviews, and earnings in the app.

Neighbours ask
What can I book on Phriend?
Local services including aircon cleaning and repair, appliance check-ups, bookkeeping and tax filing, tutoring, photography and video, driving, errands and deliveries, moving help, tour guiding, event coordination and more. Some services are done in person, some online, and some both. Phriend is strictly for legitimate services only; anything sexual or illegal results in immediate account removal.
How does booking work?
Open a service and pick a time from its schedule. For at-home services, select one of your saved addresses; online services require no address. Add a note and send the request; the provider accepts or declines. Either side can cancel with a reason, and any booking can be added to your calendar.
How do I pay?
Payment is agreed with the provider and paid to them directly in the form of cash, e-wallet, or bank transfer, whatever you agree upon. Phriend never holds your money. If paying by e-wallet or bank transfer, send only to the account the provider gave you in the Phriend chat.
How are prices set?
Each provider sets their own price for each service, either per job, per hour, or per session. The price and any minimum booking requirement show on the service listing before you book.
Does Phriend take a commission?
Not yet. Providers keep everything clients pay them. If this changes, Phriend will announce it well ahead of time.
